AJ takes points again. Or a point, this time by choice, busting Row 1 with a lower option.

Gypsy claims one of the two spots on Row 2, while Argus claims the other. Weez played the highest possible Row 2 card hoping to be last, not third, but ends up with 7 points.

Alduin has the only card that can be played on Row 3.

Only Rows 1 and 4 are playable now... with 5 spots between them....

Order of Play:

  • Argus - 17
  • Gypsy - 20
  • AJ - 22
  • Alduin - 30


Row 1 beckons with 4 available spots, meaning the last player will collect points unless someone plays on Row 4.

Nobody played on Row 4, which means anyone playing over AJ's 22 would collect 12 points.

And that anyone is Alduin. Ouch.

Everyone plays on Row 1.

Argus didn't get the memo to play a card starting with 3, and collects 12 points.

Alduin jumps for the 1-point bust of Row 2, while Gypsy happily follows along.

Everyone else plays on the new Row 2.

Row 1 beckons with room for 3. Unfortunately, four players go there which leaves Gyspy collecting 6 points, her first points of this hand. Could have been worse, and she can afford it.

Argus closes off Row 4, avoiding the drama.

  • Argus - 69
  • AJ - 85


Alduin heads to the front of the line to bust, choosing to take Row 1's 7 points rather than Row 3's 4. Weez, Gypsy, and Argus follow along.

AJ sneaks into the last spot on Row 2.

Order of Play:
  • Gypsy - 49
  • Weez - 55
  • AJ - 68
  • Alduin - 81
  • Argus - 86


Gypsy is first up to close out the hand, and grabs that 4-point Row 3 that Alduin passed up.

Weez and AJ follow behind, and Alduin's strategy last trick is apparent; he'd have taken that 7 points this turn anyway. Now he gets zero.

Argus realizes he waited one turn too long to play on Row 2, taking 12 points. Ouch.

Scores for this hand:
Weez 7
Gypsy 10
AJ 11
Alduin 20
Argus 25

Cumulative scores for the game:
Gypsy 12
Weez 41
Alduin 46
Argus 47
AJ 56
